ucked away in a corner of Homewood is a home with nearly a century of history. Although wisteriadraped evergreens hide the 98-year-old house from view, the hidden is beginning to get a lot attention.

All the history behind the Pink House gave the city of Homewood a piece of its charm. In 2004, the home was sold after its second set of owners sold it to a developer, Patrick O’Sullivan, who planned to tear down the Pink House. In June of 2018, the Homewood Planning Commission said it was official, and they started planning for the historic Bridges Home to be torn down to make way for 5 new homes on the 2.5-acre lot.
